Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 425 grams Black beans (cooked and rinsed)
- 2 pieces Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.5 cup Red onion (finely chopped)
- 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, avocado, cheese
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until they are mostly smooth but still have some texture.
Finely chop the chipotle peppers and add them to the bowl along with the minced garlic, red onion, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly.
Add the Panko breadcrumbs and the egg to the mixture. Stir until well combined and the mixture holds together when pressed.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy and golden brown.
Toast the burger buns lightly in the same skillet or in a toaster, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on the bottom half of a burger bun. Add your choice of toppings like lettuce, tomato, avocado, or cheese, and then cover with the top half of the burger bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your smoky, flavorful Chipotle Bean Burgers!
